Told by a colonial governor, a Creek military leader, Native Americans, and British colonists, each account of Acorn Whistler's execution for killing five Cherokees speaks to the collision of European and Indian cultures, the struggle to preserve traditional ways of life, and tensions within the British Empire on the eve of the American Revolution.
